Donations to CIS

First of all, thank you very much for considering donating to the Centre for Internet and Society!

If you're an Indian national who wishes to support CIS with an individual donation, you can
do so by writing a cheque or a demand draft.

1. The cheque / demand draft should favour "Centre for Internet and Society".

2. Proof of Indian citizenship (photocopy/scan of your passport; photocopy/scan of your voter ID card).

3. These need to be mailed to us at:

Centre for Internet and Society
194, 2-C Cross, 
Domlur 2nd Stage, 
Bengaluru – 560071

Scans may be e-mailed to us at: 
nagaraj@cis-india.org, CC'ing pranesh@cis-india.org or sunil@cis-india.org.

If you're an Indian national wishing to donate money through an electronic bank transfer,
please write to nagaraj@cis-india.org, CC'ing pranesh@cis-india.org / sunil@cis-india.org.
We will then verify your nationality and then send you our bank account details. This is 
needed to comply with 'know your customer' norms, and ensure that foreign funds don't end 
up in the accounts meant for Indian donations.

Unfortunately, as yet, we don't yet accept online donations through Paypal, etc.
However, we're trying hard to find a mechanism to allow us to do so.  

I will update this if this position changes.

If you're a foreign national, we don't yet accept individual donations, since the regulatory
compliances for foreign contributions are onerous for micro-donations.  We are working  on 
making this a possibility, though.
